But close enough. I bought it with a 75-200mm lense to attach, and when going to Estes Park, Colorado to watch the Elk Rut, it doesn’t fail… Except when night falls. If you don’t know how to use the camera (which I didn’t at the time) at dusk, your pictures will come out blurry and worthless. If you actually take the time to learn about the camera, you’ll find out that you can adjust the shutter speed to be so quick, that you won’t have to worry about this. That was my fault, and not the reason why I give it 4 stars, but because it’s pretty bulky to lug around. Switching lenses takes time if you don’t want to ruin them. If you see something hundreds of feet out and you all of the sudden have to switch to a bigger lense while riding in the passenger side of a vehicle, it’s still tough, because it’s hard to keep the lense from scratching. I did go out and buy a extension that you put between the camera and the lense, and it saved me a bundle not having to buy a new lense (I wanted to go to around 400mm, and with the extension, it put me at about 350mm). Another bad thing about it is the default hood that came with it. When zoomed out to 35mm, the photos would always have a black rounded edge on them, so for the most part, I would never use the hood until I got a smaller one.
But, I still love the camera! Can’t wait until I can afford a digital, and I’ll surely have one!

Normally, I swear by refurbs, but I have to second-guess that notion after buying this camera. Physically, it is in perfect condotion, and all pieces are there. Those two points led me to believe that the camera was perfect.
Well, the first thing that bothered me was that none of the automatic exposure modes (auto, portrait, landscape, etc.) work. Not sure why, and I have read the manual twice to ensure that I was not overlooking some obvious button to enable these modes.
Another issue, and I’m not sure if it’s a bug or a feature, is that the LCD stays on while film is loaded–even when the camera is “powered off”. The camera constantly shows the exposures remaining and the “film loaded” indicator stays on. I guess since LCD watches last for years on one battery, then this shouldn’t be a serious battery drain. It is good to know before you pull it out to use and potentially ruin good film. Maybe its a feature.
Now for the good points: flawless pictures. I am using the camera for a intermediate photography class (which is why I didn’t return it), and it takes perfect exposures. So far, I have done night photos, multiple exposures (camera will handle 9), action shots, and family pictures, all with flawless results.
Granted, the great pictures are due to the photographer, but the clarity and sharpness are really impressive. The user interface takes some getting used to, but it actually seems intuitive once you learn the camera. It seems that aperature and shutter could be adjusted easier, though.
Minus two because of the first two points. I’d imagine if I had bought it new it would be an easy 5 for a photo hobbyist like myself.

I bought my Canon Rebel G about three years ago after owning a Minolta XG-1 manual focus camera for about 15 years. I had to repair my Minolta once when the f-stop began sticking after about 13 years. Finally the ol’ girl gave out an I had to buy a new camera. I looked around and finally settled on the Rebel G. Immediately I could tell the difference in the photos. My old Minolta’s photos were far sharper and more focused. Now, after owning my Canon Rebel G for only three years the auto-focus has completely given out and all I am left with from a trip to Zion Nat’l Park are my memories and 11 rolls of blurry photos. To repair this camera would cost over $150–more than half the cost of a crummy camera. I’m going to throw it away and buy something worth my money. I’ve had nothing but disappointment from this camera. I would suggest spending a little more money and getting something that works. I hear Pentax is making a dependable low-buget SLR.

I bought this camera last minute before we went to the Cher concert and I wasn’t disappointed! My old SLR died the day of the concert and I bought this camera in a rush — and it worked out great! I used 1600 speed film with the 75-300 lens and got great up-close shots of Cher. It’s worth every penny!

Bought almost on a whim 3 years ago. Takes excelent pictures. Decorated my whole apartment with them. A little photoshop made my pictures up to 20×30 and only a little grainy. not bad for 35 mm.
I take rolls and rolls of pictures.
